Hi, I recently got an ethernet card (Apples) for my IIcx, and we are in the process of transferring a DBMS system to a Zenith 33mghz/with SCO Xenix ... Anyway after working on "C" source code for a week and 150 shell scripts, I decided to dump it all down to the MAC with ftp (as the tape backup on the machine isn't up yet). I logged in to the Zenith and ftp'ed to the MAC. Then set prompting off positioned both machines in the proper directories, and did an 'mput *'... well it seemed to work fine, but on closer inspection, some files were created with zero bytes! (they were on the MAC, but Empty). So I guess the question is: What gives? is the ftp process with NCSA telnet reliable? I didn't see any error messages, but did eventually get all of the files downloaded. I even suspect that at least one file was only partially transferred. Has anyone encountered problems of this sort? (I have a IIcx 5/80 w/ Apple Ethernet card - the zenith is loaded with both ram and hard disk capacity (we only use about 10% so far, we just started moving things over)
